The device description and performance studies focus on the physical properties and filtration capabilities of a standard medical face mask, with no mention of AI or ML technology.
No
The device is described as a medical face mask intended to protect against the transfer of microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate material, primarily for infection control. It is not designed to treat a disease, condition, or provide therapy.
No
This device, a medical face mask, is intended for protection from the transfer of microorganisms and body fluids, and for infection control practices, not for diagnosing medical conditions.
No
The device description clearly outlines a physical product made of materials like PP non-woven cloth, Nylon, spandex, and Aluminum wire, and the performance studies focus on physical properties and material testing.
No, this device is not an IVD (In Vitro Diagnostic).
Here's why:
- IVD Definition: In Vitro Diagnostic devices are used to examine specimens taken from the human body (like blood, urine, or tissue) to provide information for diagnosis, monitoring, or screening.
- Device Function: The description clearly states the device is a "Disposable Ear-loop Medical Face Mask/Disposable Tie-On Medical Face Mask" intended to be worn on the face to protect against the transfer of microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate material.
- Intended Use: The intended use is for "infection control practices to reduce the potential exposure to blood and body fluids." This is a barrier function, not a diagnostic test performed on a specimen.
- Lack of Diagnostic Testing: The description does not mention any testing of biological samples or providing diagnostic information. The performance studies focus on the physical properties of the mask (filtration efficiency, resistance to penetration, etc.).
Therefore, based on the provided information, this device is a medical face mask used for personal protection and infection control, not an In Vitro Diagnostic device.

Device Description
The proposed device is a three-layers, flat-pleated mask. Its size is 17.5 cm x 9.5 cm, and it is available in two types, Ear-loop and Tie-On. Both the ear loop and tie-on masks are available in three barrier levels (Level 1, Level 3) based on ASTM F2100: 2019. The mask body is composed of three layers which is made of PP non-woven cloth. The difference between the three levels mask is the density of middle material. The ear loop or tie strings is used to secure the mask over the users' mouth and face. The nosepiece provides a firm fit over the nose. Ear loops are made of Nylon and spandex, and tie strings are made of PP non-woven cloth. The nose clip is made of Aluminum wire.

§ 878.4040 Surgical apparel.
(a)
Identification. Surgical apparel are devices that are intended to be worn by operating room personnel during surgical procedures to protect both the surgical patient and the operating room personnel from transfer of microorganisms, body fluids, and particulate material. Examples include surgical caps, hoods, masks, gowns, operating room shoes and shoe covers, and isolation masks and gowns. Surgical suits and dresses, commonly known as scrub suits, are excluded.(b)
Classification. (1) Class II (special controls) for surgical gowns and surgical masks. A surgical N95 respirator or N95 filtering facepiece respirator is not exempt if it is intended to prevent specific diseases or infections, or it is labeled or otherwise represented as filtering surgical smoke or plumes, filtering specific amounts of viruses or bacteria, reducing the amount of and/or killing viruses, bacteria, or fungi, or affecting allergenicity, or it contains coating technologies unrelated to filtration (e.g., to reduce and or kill microorganisms). Surgical N95 respirators and N95 filtering facepiece respirators are exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to § 878.9, and the following conditions for exemption:(i) The user contacting components of the device must be demonstrated to be biocompatible.
(ii) Analysis and nonclinical testing must:
(A) Characterize flammability and be demonstrated to be appropriate for the intended environment of use; and
(B) Demonstrate the ability of the device to resist penetration by fluids, such as blood and body fluids, at a velocity consistent with the intended use of the device.
(iii) NIOSH approved under its regulation.
(2) Class I (general controls) for surgical apparel other than surgical gowns and surgical masks. The class I device is exempt from the premarket notification procedures in subpart E of part 807 of this chapter subject to § 878.9.
